IPRO 328: Spring 2002
Purpose: "...this ipro was aimed at making the participants learn about the urban heat island effect and its environmental impacts. at the same time, gaining knowledge about the physical properties of redi-mix concrete as a building material and developing concepts for concrete construction in urban areas to reduce the heat island effect was essential to the proper completion of the task. creating concepts for further exploration of solutions to the urban heat island effect using concrete was an added optional objective."

IPRO 328: Spring 2003
